A motorcycle crash in the Joplin area sent two people to the hospital with moderate injuries over the weekend.

The wreck happened at about noon Sunday when a 2003 Honda driven by Jeffrey Bristol, 48, of Ava, was headed west on Route V seven miles south of Joplin when he failed to negotiate a curve and overturned, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol report.

Jamie Cole, 27, of Washburn, was a passenger at the time.

Both were transported to Freeman West Hospital in Joplin for treatment.
